Original wheel weight
Does anyone now how much one wheel of our beloved SVX weights?
Want to buy a set of Murano 18, but also want to know what the weight difference is. The owner of the wheels says one 18 inch Murano weighs 29lbs. |

Re: Original wheel weight
Stock SVX wheels weighed 20#s each.

Re: Original wheel weight
Sounds close. I think I found that they weighed more like 25-26lbs.

Re: Original wheel weight
I think I got 22 lbs on my postal scale. Pretty heavy actually. My 16" Mustang rims were 17 or 18 lbs.
29 lbs is a boat anchor! |

Re: Original wheel weight
From a 2004 document of mine on weight savings.
"- 14 lb lighter wheels (16.5 ea)" 16.6 X 4 wheels = 66#s 66#s plus 14#s = 80#s 80#s divided by 4 wheels = 20# each, for stock SVX wheels.

Re: Original wheel weight
I threw a stock rim and tire on the scale to compare with a murano rim on 225/40/18 and the difference in weight was 6 pounds IIRC. I believe it was 42lb for stock and then 48lb.
